US Stock Index Futures Rise; Nasdaq 100 Futures Up Over 1%

The tech-heavy Nasdaq outpacing the broader indices signals that risk appetite is concentrated in growth and technology names rather than spread evenly across the market. That gap matters because it suggests futures are pricing a sector-specific bid, not a broad macro reassessment, which leaves the move more vulnerable to single-name or sector news. Whether the Nasdaq's lead over the Dow persists into the cash session is the open question worth watching.
